Linda: I am so very sorry for your loss. Just hearing you talk about Ralph anyone would know that you two were a happy couple. There is no greater joy nor greater reward that to make a fundamental difference in someone's life. You made a difference in his life. Please take care of yourself. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Dorie, Sorry to hear of the loss of your brother. May God be with your family and bring you domfort. Pebble
